Product Information
APR Roll-Control Lowering Springs greatly improve the looks and handling of your Volkswagen MK8 Golf R without greatly sacrificing comfort or your wallet! Designed for use with DCC or Non-DCC dampers, our performance-lowering springs are a direct plug-and-play upgrade that offers a lower center of gravity and increased spring rates to reduce body roll.
Many lowering springs on the market today simply lower your vehicle and give a false sense of improvement by feeling overly stiff. We took a different approach to our design. We extensively track and street-tested several iterations to deliver a system that not only makes your MK8 Golf R look great but does so while delivering a comfortable experience that doesn't constantly crash and bottom out the dampers. Through a proper ride height configuration, we're able to greatly increase spring rates for improved handling but do so without leaving the ride harsh, bouncy, and uncomfortable. Your MK8 Golf R will be planted with a minimal impact on comfort. It's a system you'll love the second you're behind the wheel!
These springs were designed in-house and manufactured in the USA using premium high-tensile chrome silicon steel for excellent resilience against sagging and failure for years to come. Each spring comes powder-coated in our signature red color, further protecting the spring from the elements. The front and rear springs are a dual-rate spring that will operate as a single rate, linear spring, under normal loaded driving situations. All center of wheel to fender (CF) measurements were recorded on our in-house US Spec 2022 MK8 Golf R (DCC) test vehicles and may vary slightly from vehicle to vehicle. Lastly, while this system was designed specifically for the MK8 Golf R, it will fit other similar platform vehicles.
